Question

c. tyler is overdrawn at the bank by $180. he gets $70 for his birthday and deposits it. what is his account balance now?

d. andre has $37 in his bank account and writes a check for $87. after the check has been cashed, what will the bank balance show?

Explanation:

Part c

Step1: Define initial balance

Overdrawn means negative balance, so initial balance is $-180$.

Step2: Add the deposit

Deposit is +\$70, so new balance is $-180 + 70$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$-180 + 70 = -110$.

Step1: Define initial balance

Initial balance is \$37.

Step2: Subtract the check amount

Writing a check means subtracting \$87, so new balance is $37 - 87$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$37 - 87 = -50$.

Answer:

\$-110
